Address: 7602 S Avondale Blvd, Avondale, Arizona, 85353

The Quicken Loans Race for Heroes 500 is one of the last races of the season and is run at the Phoenix International Raceway, also known as PIR. The track is 1.51 miles; it is a tri-oval and has a seating capacity of 67,000 on-their-feet-screaming fans! Seating starts in turn four, goes across the front stretch and wraps around turns one and two. There is also blanket or lawn chair seating available on the hillside located in between turns three and four. Because of the long front straightaway, the wind velocity is fast and the cars run hard and tight. PIR also serves as a road course track for USAC, CART, IndyCar and NACAR Camping Truck Series.

There is a unique seating opportunity at PIR on the “Monumental Hillside,” named so for the United States Geological Society’s bench marker of the Gila and Salt Meridian. It was the original surveying spot for the state of Arizona. Grab your chair and sunglasses and let TicketCity get you to the Chase for the Cup end of the season series!

Seating at PIR begins in turn four in the Richard Petty section, if you like watching the last turn going into the first green flag, get a seat here. The next section, Jimmy Bryan section, sits on the front stretch and faces pit road. If you like watching the pit stops and the green or checkered flag drop right before you, this is for you. The A.J Foyt section also sits partly on the front stretch but also wraps around turn one, this would be a great vantage point for pit road, and turns one and four. The last section is the Bobby Allison grandstand, it sits wrapped around turn one and turn two. And don’t forget, you have the choice to sit on the “Monumental Hillside.” Put on your clear or sunglasses, wear earplugs and ladies tie your hair back, the wind velocity is fast coming!
